^ ^ The go-to track for me was usually "Up."
Like the film itself, uplifting and life-affirming.

That said, I know a lot of people are more into strife or conflict.

About Elly - 2009 - 7/10
AKA - Darbareye Elly

Exasperating thriller from Iran might have you hurling items at your screen.
Some ten years after their college days, friends decide to weekend together at the Caspian Sea.
One of the guys is recently divorced, so one woman invites a single female as marriage bait.
Pressure is immediate and uncomfortable.
Twenty minutes in, Elly (marriage bait), who has turned reluctant, disappears.
Kidnapped? Walked away on her own? Murdered? Eaten by a bear? Who knows.
Authorities arrive - questions - turns out none of the friends even know Elly’s last name!
The focus pinpoints on Sepideh, the wife who invited her.
Sepideh is a nest of white lies, deception, manipulation.
Because of the constant lying, even explanations are untrustworthy and you want to scream.
